If the wrecking yard would let you fire it up there that would be a plus. As for installing the D24T in the 240 with the 7xx bellhousing, I have not done it myself but memeber Slodbodan has I believe. If it was me I would get the engine/trans combo and freshen up the engine before installing it in the 240. As Jason said the lower ends don't get wear on them ( at least the 5 that I pulled apart) and the cylinder walls seem to be pretty tough. I would rebuild the head, re-ring it and install new rod bearings. What year is the the car with the D24T? From my findings it seems that the Pre-EGR engines are always in better shape (83 and 84 I think).
